the 1st IP address of the modem, which means the modem is
the default gateway.
DNS Server IP Address
DNS stands for Domain Name System. Every Internet host
must have a unique IP address, also they may have a
human-friendly, easy to remember name such as
www.yahoo.com. The DNS server converts the user-friendly
name into its equivalent IP address.
Primary IP Address -You must specify a DNS server IP address
here because your ISP should provide you with usually more
than one DNS Server. If your ISP does not provide it, the
modem will automatically apply default DNS Server IP
address: 194.109.6.66 to this field.
Secondary IP Address - You can specify secondary DNS server
IP address here because your ISP often provides you more
than one DNS Server. If your ISP does not provide it, the
modem will automatically apply default secondary DNS
Server IP address: 194.98.0.1 to this field.
The default DNS Server IP address can be found via Online
Status:
If both the Primary IP and Secondary IP Address fields are left
empty, the modem will assign its own IP address to local
users as a DNS proxy server and maintain a DNS cache.
If the IP address of a domain name is already in the DNS
cache, the modem will resolve the domain name
immediately. Otherwise, the modem forwards the DNS query
packet to the external DNS server by establishing a WAN (e.g.
DSL/Cable) connection.
